CLASS PROPHECY by Antoinette Cappo As I ai sitting here by the record player, I look at the swirling diso and wonder what the class of ’47 will look like ten years from now. Everyone knows that clothes get soiled so easily, and that it is ex- pensive when you have so many to be cleaned. Why not try Emil Fritz and Alfred Purdy s Dependable and Economical Cleaning Shop? It seems as though it took Fritz and Purdy to start rebuilding the old town. Good work, men. On the next diso, there seems to appear three of our old seniors—— namely, Sue Polonius, Juanita Dobransky, and Wanda Hicks, who are working as secretaries in Chicago. Y atch the big city girls—it s pretty windy! I You may have seen Martin Berutti speeding through the streets of Benld in a »57 Studebaker with Charles Novak hot on his trail, ready to give him a ticket. Don’t become alarmed! Martin is the new Studebaker dealer for this vioinity. Looks like he’s followed his father’s footsteps. Charlie has Just been promoted to Chief of Police. Maybe someday you’ll run for County Sheriff, huh, Charlie??? Aside from being Marilucille’s devoted husband, Leonard Econie is draw- ing little pixies for Walt Disney. By the way, Mariluoille had graduated as X-ray technician from De Paul Hospital a few years ago. On the next disc there are two of our senior girls dressed in white nurse’s uniforms. They are Betty Jane Vallero and Antoinette Cappo. But wait! Betty seems to be setting this white uniform aside for another white outfit. Who’s the lucky guy, Betty?? Latest reports say th t. Nettie is going to stick to only one uniform. Could be!! The record One Meat Ball looks as though it may be Donald Koniak’s favorite song sinoe he’s head butcher in his new serve-yourself I.G.A. store. Did you ever hear that record, The Sun Shines Bright ? Anyway it surely is shining brightly on Edgar Polonius s navy uniform. He’s Admiral now, you know. Paul Koniak sure has worked himself up in this world. Can you imagine! He’s boss at No. 1 mine. Gee, he only started as a slate picker. Getting on the Superior Honor Roll in high school has surely helped Louis Audi. Yes, he’s a lawyer in Carlinville where he has quite a few secretaries working for him. I understand Louie has been divorced twice. Ahem!! Getting back to records, I’m sure you’re familiar with the song Cali- for-ni-a. At least if you aren’t, Violet Ferjancich is because she has become Mrs. Bill Klien and has been residing there for the past few years. I bet you can't pioture this, and neither can I. Tom Rauker has taken over Mr. Makuh’s position of teaohing English IV. Say Tom, have you run across any Tom Raukers of ’47 in your ’57 class???? The next record is suppose to be jazz which has that characteristic loud noise. This can only mean that I can hear the hammers of Jack Cald- erwood and Rudy Goldasich who are now the local carpenters in Benld. Mills surely helped you men make something of yourselves, didn’t he? After seven years of hard drilling and study, Glennie Targhetta is doing some drilling himself, professionally, since he’s the local dentist of Benld. Yes, he’s managed to obtain some customers, and one of them is Olga Motika who now teaches a little country school. Olga has nine pupils, and she says it’s like having one big happy family. I wonder!
